The Microphones was the name of a musical project based in Olympia, Washington, and fronted by Phil Elvrum. Elvrum was the principal songwriter and producer behind the Microphones' albums, but he also collaborated with other local musicians on his recordings and on tour. Many of Elvrum's recordings from this period were released by the label K Records. Since 2003, Elvrum (who now spells his surname Elverum) has recorded and performed under the name Mount Eerie.
History
Early years
Phil Elvrum became involved in the Washington music scene while working at The Business, a record store in his home town of Anacortes, in the mid-1990s. Elvrum began experimenting with recording equipment in the back of the store, which led to the store's owner Bret Lunsford releasing two cassettes (Microphone and Wires and Cords) on his label, KNW-YR-OWN. Elvrum also played drums in Lunsford's band, D+, before moving to Olympia in 1997 to attend Evergreen State College.
Whilst in Olympia, Elvrum caught the attention of K Records owner and musician Calvin Johnson. After recording for some time at the Dub Narcotic studios, Elvrum was able to complete his first full-length album, a CD entitled Tests, which was released in 1998 on Elsinor Records. Tests combined songs from his earlier cassette releases and the recently recorded Dub Narcotic recordings. At the same time, Elvrum released his first 7" single, "Bass Drum Dream" on Up Records.
Black Cloud is a 2004 American film directed and written by Rick Schroder.
Plot
Black Cloud (Eddie Spears), a young Navajo man, must take a journey of personal growth to prepare himself for a chance at boxing in the Olympics. When Eddie (Rick Schroder) returns to town with the rodeo and wants to rekindle his relationship with Black Cloud's girlfriend, Sammi (Julia Jones), Black Cloud confronts him and runs into trouble with the sheriff (Tim McGraw) after beating up Eddie who is Sammi's ex-boyfriend and the father of her child, as well as the Sheriff's nephew).
After seeing Black Cloud in a boxing match, an Olympic Scout named Norm Olsen (Peter Greene) offers him a tryout for the U.S. Olympic team. Initially Black Cloud rejects the offer believing that it would be just to 'fight for the White Man'. In trying to apply for Indian Housing he and Sammi find out that his great-grandfather was from Germany; believing he is cursed by his diluted bloodline Black Cloud has a falling out with Sammi. He goes to see his grandfather, who takes him into the canyons and tells him about his family and the German man who helped his great-grandmother after she was raped by a several white men and went by the name White Wolf. Realizing that his bloodline is pure he decides to come back to Sammi and proposes to her. He gets back into training for the Golden Gloves tournament coming up and decides to take up the scout's offer if he wins.
The Black Cloud is a science fiction novel by astrophysicistSir Fred Hoyle. Published in 1957, the book details the arrival of an enormous cloud of gas that enters the solar system and appears about to destroy most of the life on Earth by blocking the Sun's radiation. The cloud is later revealed as a sentient alien gaseous creature.
Plot summary
In 1964, astrophysicists on Earth become aware of an immense cloud of gas that is heading for the solar system. The cloud, if interposed between the Sun and the Earth, could wipe out most of the life on Earth by blocking solar radiation and ending photosynthesis. A cadre of astronomers and other scientists is drawn together in Nortonstowe, England, to study the cloud and report to the British government about the consequences of its presence.
The cloud unexpectedly decelerates as it approaches and comes to rest around the Sun, causing disastrous climatic changes on Earth and immense mortality and suffering for the human race. As the behaviour of the cloud proves to be impossible to predict scientifically, the team at Nortonstowe eventually come to the conclusion that it might be a life-form with a degree of intelligence. The scientists try to communicate with the cloud, and succeed. The cloud is revealed to be a superorganism, many times more intelligent than humans, which is surprised to find intelligent life-forms on a solid planet.
The album is a four-part concept album which documents Wright's then-wife Mildred's battle with depression, and is very much like a classic Pink Floyd concept album in its structure and overall feel. Two songs, "Reaching for the Rail" and "Breakthrough" feature Sinéad O'Connor on lead vocals, with Wright singing elsewhere. The album was recorded in Wright's personal studio in France. Broken China was only Wright's second solo record after 1978's Wet Dream and the last to be released before his death in September 2008.
Wright asked fellow Pink Floyd bandmate David Gilmour to perform on the album, to which Gilmour agreed to play one track. However, the approach for the song was changed later on, and Gilmour's performance was not used on the finished album.
On the DVD David Gilmour in Concert, a guest appearance is made by Wright, who sings "Breakthrough" accompanied by David Gilmour and his band.

The Microphones - I Want Wind To Blow
off of the glow part 2
The thunder clouds broke up
And the rain dried up
The lightning let up
The clacking shutters just shut up
There's no black or white
No change in the light
No night, no golden sun
The sound of cars
The smell of bars
The awful feeling of electric heat
And the fluorescent lights
There's sacrifice
There's hard feelings
There's pointless waste
I want wind to blow
My clothes off me
Sweep me off my feet
Take me up and bring me back
Oh, where I can see
Days pass by me
I have no head to hold in grief
There's no hope for me
I've been set free
There's no breeze
There's no ship on my sea

The Microphones - The Glow Pt 2
Lyrics:
I took my shirt off in the yard
no one saw that the skin on my shoulders was golden
now it's not
my shirt's back on
i forgot my songs
the glow is gone
my gliding body stopped
i could not get through september without a battle
i faced death
i went in with my arms swinging
but i heard my own breath
i had to face that i'm still living
i'm still flesh
i hold on to awful feelings
i'm not dead
there's no end
my face is red
my blood flows harshly
my heart beats loudly
my chest still draws breath
i hold it
i'm buoyant
there's no end

Crazy Town- Black Cloud
Now people say I'm jinxed.
I got some kind of voodoo hex.
Life is so complex.
There's no telling what can happen next.
Life on the edge,
Fuels the sickness in my head.
It imbeds the type of thoughts
That got a lot of brothers dead.
The smarter brother knows
To keep his foes close.
And I'm the type of brother
That's smarter than most.
A cold hearted overdose
Of lyrical antidotes.
The cure to make sure
My karma can't take me down.
Up to the same old tricks.
I wonder if I'll stick around.
Is a penny really lucky
If you find it on the ground?
What's the problem with this town?
I can't figure it out.
My karma's crashing down
In the form of a black cloud.
[CHORUS:]
I've got a little black cloud
That follows me.
Everywhere I go,
It takes over me.

[Intro]
Trillo Beats, you did it again
You know, I'm in New Jersey right now
It's like four in the mornin'
It's me and T in this bitch, my nigga Dre in this bitch
Uh, uh
[Verse]
Flushed all these Percocets (Why?) they wasn't workin' yet
Quarter pound on my bus, we finna murda that
Today was okay, but I been feelin' sorrow (What up?)
Tonight I'ma pray it's better by tomorrow
Say mama, hey, mama, I been feelin' homesick
It's demons inside my heart and I can feel 'em growin'
I brought people around me without even knowin'
They all had secrets agendas that they wasn't showin' (Showin')
Bitches will stab you in yo' back but smile in yo' face (Face)
Niggas will act how they act but they want yo' place (Yo' place)
Say that's it's love out they mouth, but that shit be fake (Fake)
So I been lookin' for peace and beggin' for space (What up?)
And, Lord, I'm just a nigga tryna win, uh
Lord, I'm just a nigga, so I sin (Rrah, rrah, rrah, rrah)
We spin his block, we spin his block then spin again (Mm)
He gotta pay for what he did, yeah
[Refrain]
I been feelin' pain for so long (What up?)
I done became numb
I don't make it no better, I give my heart to whoever (Whoever)
They take it and they run, mm, mm
[Pre-Chorus]
You had me but you lost me (Lost me)
I'm not mad, I'm exhausted (Exhausted)
Please, please, if you come around (Yeah)
Gimme somethin' to make me smile
[Chorus]
And it's so many dark days
It's so many dark days and dark clouds
It's been so many dark days (Rrah, rrah, rrah)
Been so many dark days and dark clouds
[Interlude]
Like a big-ass black cloud been following a nigga 'round, I been tryna shake that bitch
Then niggas come around with that energy
Make it even fuckin' worse, I don't even— man, I be—
[Chorus]
It's been so many dark days
Been so many dark days and dark clouds (I get a nigga from 'round me fast)
It's been so many dark days (Ask me, feel me)
Been so many dark days and dark clouds (Uh, uh)
[Refrain]
I been feelin' pain for so long, uh
I done became numb
I don't make it no better, I give my heart to whoever, uh
They take it and they run, mm, mm
[Outro]
You had me but you lost me
I'm not mad, I'm exhausted

Now people say I'm jinxed.
I got some kind of voodoo hex.
Life is so complex.
There's no telling what can happen next.
Life on the edge,
Fuels the sickness...
Now people say I'm jinxed.
I got some kind of voodoo hex.
Life is so complex.
There's no telling what can happen next.
Life on the edge,
Fuels the sickness in my head.
It imbeds the type of thoughts
That got a lot of brothers dead.
The smarter brother knows
To keep his foes close.
And I'm the type of brother
That's smarter than most.
A cold hearted overdose
Of lyrical antidotes.
The cure to make sure
My karma can't take me down.
Up to the same old tricks.
I wonder if I'll stick around.
Is a penny really lucky
If you find it on the ground?
What's the problem with this town?
I can't figure it out.
My karma's crashing down
In the form of a black cloud.
[CHORUS:]
I've got a little black cloud
That follows me.
Everywhere I go,
It takes over me.
[X2]
I'm sick.
I've got a real ill disposition.
My intentions are pure
But there's a cure for my condition.
My decisions
Put me in the wrong positions.
Chasing pipe dreams
Of fame and recognition.
The Epic.
Not only a name,
A definition.
My game remains no matter the pain.
I stay the charmer.
The Don of Karma.
I navigate it like the Dalai Lama
I ain't a saint.
But I've got Joi de vie
And I'm the one to blame
If the cloud rains on me.
I can't complain about it
Or even let regret
Provoke the energy it takes
For me to get upset.
A bad boy since birth
So I can't forget
What goes around
Comes around
And it ain't got me yet.
I've gotten wise in my age
And tamed the threat of my rage.
I've got a lot to learn
And I've got money to spend.
To pretend is reaping more
Than sewing ever could mend.
[CHORUS]
Trade my torches for a dime
The pressure's fading away now
Black cloud's lifted for the light
The pressure's fading away now.
A thousand cigarettes
Won't change the way we feel.
The pressure's fading now
Can you bare the thought of knowing truth?
Knowing truth.
I was rapping in the rain,
Hoping that my luck would change.
And if there's any truth
To all those old sayings.
Cuz if I killed a spider,
Would my house catch on fire?
If I walked under a ladder
Would it matter?
I tend to laugh
When black cats cross my path.
Break mirrors in half
Just to test the aftermath
Now here comes rain.
I project my pain.
Trying to make sense
Of these crazy things.
I'm a diamond in the rough.
Could I suffer enough?
I'm getting high for a living,
Not giving a fuck.
These hard times got me stuck.
Stuck in a jam
I'm the monkey on your back
And the crack in the dam.
Disastrous
Took time to master this.
And the past
Is just a map to capture this.
In the darkness.
I'm forced to adapt to this.
I would change the past
If I could have one wish.
Now people say I'm jinxed.
I got some kind of voodoo hex.
Life is so complex.
There's no telling what can happen next.
Life on the edge,
Fuels the sickness in my head.
It imbeds the type of thoughts

To keep his foes close.

off of the glow part 2
The thunder clouds broke up
And the rain dried up
The lightning let up
The clacking shutters just shut up
There's no black or white
No change in the light
No night, no golden sun
The sound of cars
The smell of bars
The awful feeling of electric heat
And the fluorescent lights
There's sacrifice
There's hard feelings
There's pointless waste
I want wind to blow
My clothes off me
Sweep me off my feet
Take me up and bring me back
Oh, where I can see
Days pass by me
I have no head to hold in grief
There's no hope for me
I've been set free
There's no breeze
There's no ship on my sea
Lyrics:
I took my shirt off in the yard
no one saw that the skin on my shoulders was golden
now it's not
my shirt's back on
i forgot my songs
the glow is gone
my gliding body stopped
i could not get through september without a battle
i faced death
i went in with my arms swinging
but i heard my own breath
i had to face that i'm still living
i'm still flesh
i hold on to awful feelings
i'm not dead
there's no end
my face is red
my blood flows harshly
my heart beats loudly
my chest still draws breath
i hold it
i'm buoyant
there's no end

The Microphones (Phil Elv[e]rum), later known as Mount Eerie, performing with Wolf Colonel (Jason Anderson) at Pete's Candy Store in Brooklyn, NY on 9/9/2002. The then-forthcoming album Mt. Eerie is played in its entirety.
The Microphones was the name of a musical project based in Olympia, Washington, and fronted by Phil Elvrum. Elvrum was the principal songwriter and producer behind the Microphones' albums, but he also collaborated with other local musicians on his recordings and on tour. Many of Elvrum's recordings from this period were released by the label K Records. Since 2003, Elvrum (who now spells his surname Elverum) has recorded and performed under the name Mount Eerie.
History
Early years
Phil Elvrum became involved in the Washington music scene while working at The Business, a record store in his home town of Anacortes, in the mid-1990s. Elvrum began experimenting with recording equipment in the back of the store, which led to the store's owner Bret Lunsford releasing two cassettes (Microphone and Wires and Cords) on his label, KNW-YR-OWN. Elvrum also played drums in Lunsford's band, D+, before moving to Olympia in 1997 to attend Evergreen State College.
Whilst in Olympia, Elvrum caught the attention of K Records owner and musician Calvin Johnson. After recording for some time at the Dub Narcotic studios, Elvrum was able to complete his first full-length album, a CD entitled Tests, which was released in 1998 on Elsinor Records. Tests combined songs from his earlier cassette releases and the recently recorded Dub Narcotic recordings. At the same time, Elvrum released his first 7" single, "Bass Drum Dream" on Up Records.

There's a black cloud Hanging over my head Down to my last buck With an old black cloud Hanging over my head There ain't no such thing As good luck Oh, the very first Saturday of every month I go down to get me some pay When I ask my bossman about a draw This is what my bossman say [CHORUS] Black could hanging over my head Down to my last buck With an old black cloud Hanging over my head There ain't no such thing As good luck Well, I earn my living By the sweat of my brow I work so hard every day With that old black cloud Hanging over my head To drive my dreams away And if it wasn't with the Help of the one I love To tell my troubles to There just ain't no telling What that old black cloud Might drive this poor man to [Repeat CHORUS] I'm gonna seed in the ground Gonna grow me a tree This is what that black cloud done They sent all the locust To eat up the tree I'm gonna cook my brains in the sun And one of these days When I'm laid away I know that cloud can't wait It's gonna hover over me On Judgement Day To keep me from the Pearly Gate
